I have just taken delivery of some 'autosocks' to help traction in snow
and ice so I can pretty much guarantee it'll be mild and wet from now on!


I bought three pair of thick, woolly socks at the newsagent this morning so
I'm sure you're right. Mind you, the boots for which I'll be using them were
ordered and arrived just before the snow and that didn't work - or was it
the delayed-action cause of yesterday's snow failure?
